    Official 2016 Ga. Military Vehicle Rally info thread. Oct. 19-23, 2016

    Thank you for your offer. I will talk with my graphic design guy here in a bit and see if we can whip something up. C

    can a deuce ever be very reliable?

    Forum won't let you? Do a search for pictures tutorial, I don't think there are any restrictions. First, without paperwork showing what was done and when (calendar wise), I'd consider this almost irrelevant. Sure, maybe the oil pump and bearings only have 300 hours, but if this "rebuild" was...

    2016 Ga Military Vehicle Rally buy/sell/trade thread

    I realize it's not military but you can haul military vehicles on it................. I bought this trailer this summer and it is super nice and the only reason I'm selling it is because I need an 18' deck and this has a 16' deck. I didn't realize I'd need the longer model when I bought...

    2016 Ga Military Vehicle Rally volunteers needed.

    We still need slav...... err.... indentured servants! Don't worry-although it will be hard work and you'll be expected to shoulder a lot of responsibility, you will leave the rally a bigger, better person. The way the military reshapes young people into adults. We might give you beer as well.

    I shall test the forum

    I shall walk forth in the dark valley of servers and hosts, fearing no cloud crashes or dropped packets. I shall not be fearful of web hosts that can't get their acts in gear.

    Is there a taller all terrain dually tire than the g177?

    1. I have seen dualled 12:00 tires on a deuce, but years ago and I think they were an old bias ply tire. They definitely weren't a "modern" tire lie an XL, T831 or G177. 2. I have a set of dualled G177s on my deuce and I can almost guarantee you won't get anything larger on the truck...

    Hercules Engine Date Code?

    It is very hit or miss with trucks getting tags showing they were rebuilt or reset. There is so much misinformation out there about this, I am not sure what is reality and what is BS. I see so many people advertising trucks saying the vehicle had a "full depot overhaul" and they don't have one...

    Hercules Engine Date Code?

    We've had about 40 deuces and absolutely not a single one had a 1960s engine. Every single one had an engine made between about 1985 and 1988. So the story goes......................................................... The EPA kept giving the military grief about the multifuel. It is a dirty...

    Hercules Engine Date Code?

    Yes. The assembly date is probably the one on the data plate.

    Hercules Engine Date Code?

    It's the casting date. The date the block was poured. It would have been built later.

    Paint job

    Thank you both for these excellent answers. I have no experience painting aluminum; this is very helpful to me and all the other new HMMWV owners.

    Deuce Bed Handling/Lifting

    Does it have the cargo tie downs? If so, one chain running from the front side hook to the rear side hook and vice versa. If not, you can put the hook in the stake pocket, but in doing this, it will occasionally rip the sheetmetal. Just isn't designed for that. here's another way of doing...

    This is Steel Soldiers. Aren't you making your own witches brew of homegrown fuel, consisting of but not limited to used motor oil, used transmission fluid, diesel (taxed and untaxed), gasoline, 2 stroke engine oil/gas, surplus toilet bowl cleaner, obsolete transformer oil, kerosene, Jet A...

    You're in Marietta, man! There are people coming from Uraguay! If they can make it, you and your M37 can. This is going to be the year of M37s. I'll add that to the list. Honestly, we need more volunteers for the MKT than anything. SCSG has his hands full trying to keep that operation...
